The animal messing on the floor was because HE didnt take the time to train the dog. Biting the kid could be for many reasons some of which was not the dogs fault. Even if all this was the puppies fault. CALL ANIMAL CONTROL You dont beat a small breed puppy to death with a baseball bat.
The Iowa attorney general's office has appealed a court decision that overturned the animal torture conviction of a man who beat a puppy to death with a baseball bat.
Two weeks ago, an Iowa Court of Appeals ruling tossed Meerdink's conviction. The three-judge panel voted 2-1 that prosecutors failed to prove Meerdink acted with a "depraved or sadistic intent to cause death," as required by the state's animal torture law. Evidence showed Meerdink did not appear happy about the beating, and had first tried other ways to change the puppy's behavior, the court's majority said.
